Threshold Network said its tBTC bridge was restarting onchain operations after a nine-day security pause, but its app was not yet accepting new deposits, minting or redemptions. Requests submitted before the shutdown are expected to be processed as patched node operators reconnect. Threshold gave no date for full service to resume.
Threshold halted the bridge on Oct. 30 while operators addressed a critical Linux kernel flaw; it said it found no evidence the flaw was exploited against tBTC nodes. Aave froze its Ethereum Core tBTC reserve on Oct. 31, blocking new deposits and the token’s use as borrowing power, though existing users can still withdraw and repay loans. The reserve holds about $120 million in tBTC, and Aave risk provider LlamaRisk said it would propose restoring it after Threshold’s operations return to normal.
